More than two-thirds of the way across the country, e weary team will work out this afternoon after six tiresome ys ea route from the west coast.
Just 10 days ago the men of Troy left Union station to ,e the Washington Huskies, and now, two Saturdays later, e SC varsity is clashing in what will probably be one of the jor intersectional tilts of the day. On its outcome rests uch of the future of both teams, for an SC win will make e Trojans a heavy contender for Pasadena and at the same e end the powerful rule of the Buckeyes in the middle st. If the favored Ohioans emerge victorious, it will finish actically any hope of a Rose bowl invitation for the undering Herd, and will definitely put Ohio State at the of the gridiron ratings.
On their way east from Washington, the Trojan squad pped frequently to hold short drills. In Evanston, 111., Cra-ith put the boys through signal and pass practice, and then rked on some Ohio plays that George Levison brought ck from Columbus. Levison is the former Northwestern arterback who scouts all the mid-western teams for the ojans.

House Appropriation Strengthens Air Arm, Ignores Battleships
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8 — (U.P.)—The house, acknowledging that air power is a I prime requisite for victory, to- j day passed by voice vote a $15,747,000,000 war bill carry-ing funds for 14,611 navy planes and authorization for 5000.000 tons of new aircraft carriers, but not one cent for battleships.
All but $641,295,293 is earmarked for the naval expansion program and would provide the United States with the most formidable fleet in world history.

Ride-Sharing Scheme te Help Commuters Solve Tire Problem
SC’s program to beat gas rationing by doubling up on automobile transportation rolled forward yesterday with the announcement by Lael Lee, director of the car-sharing plan, that additional
vicinity which is divided into six 1 districts. Each district is broken j down into several groups accord- j ing to streets and addresses. Students can in this manner locate the driver nearest their homes.
Lee said that the success or failure of the entire program now rests with the students. Students wishing to secure rides may do so | by contacting the listed drivers.
An earlier system of ride-sharing bogged down because of student apathy toward signing up for rides. Under the new system the committee will post a complete list of drivers with names and addresses on the bulletin board in the Student Union early next week.

LONDON, Oct. 8—(U.P.)—The Germans will abandon their / I l C* A A S"* ^ron^a^ assaults on Stalingrad and destroy what is left of the Dcits for U5MC city artillery, the Berlin radio said tonight, raising the ' possibility that Hitler may swing his armies south ahead of
I the Russan snows and try to break through the Caucasus dur-
| -—-| ing the winter.
British experts also saw the pos sibility that Hitler, faced with defeat in the greatest battle of the war, was pulling his badly mauled forces back to winter quarters on the Don river. They could ill survive the winter on the Stalingrad steppes, a shelterless region of howl-in? blizzards.
CHANGE ASSERTED f
The Berlin radio said there has been “an important change in the character of the battle” (for Stalingrad). German objectives there have been “achieved,” it said, and there is' no further purpose in German troops trying to storm “the rest" of the city. It warned, however, that the districts still standing will be destroyed by the heaviest artillery, which is already in place at the front.
This announcement was in stark contrast to Hitler's winter relief speech last Wednesday saying that “Stalingrad will be taken—you can be sure of that.”
OFFENSE COLLAPSING
There have been indications for several days that Hitler’s whole 1942 plan for the conquest of Stalingrad, the lower Volga and the Caucasus was collapsing in the face of ferocious Russian resistance, and some informants here regarded the radio statement as an admission of the failure of the 48-day siege.
“It may be his (Hitler’s) first step toward abandoning the bloody slaughter and preparing the way for a get-out,” one observer said.
CITY BATTERED
Stalingrad is believed to have been so badly battered already that it would be uninhabitable by either side this winter.
A German withdrawal would bear a striking similarity to the retreat from Rostov last winter. There, after announcing that they had captured the Don river port on Nov. 22, the Germans announced Nov. 29 that they were withdrawing for “strategic’’ reasons and would reduce Rostov with long range artillery.

Scrap Pile Grows With Troy Yield
Old radio parts, wires and metal —anything the campus can manage without—can now be found on the east side of Bovard field. These parts may eventually go into another plane for MacArthur or another jeep for Private Johnny Jones.
Every building on campus has been cleared of scrap, everything from a piece of wire to an iron plaque, so that SC's contribution to the scrap drive now weighs almost 5000 pounds compared with Thursday's total of little more than 200 pounds.
The morning’s collection totaled only 307 pounds, but by afternoon the addition of 1800 pounds made the heap a respectable size.

Hall Describes Drug Shortage
Speech Scheduled Tonight at Hancock
The growing shortage of herbs and pharmaceuticals and the work of the United States to find new sources will be the topic of a lecture by Dr. Alvah G. Hall, acting dean of the College of Pharmacy, this evening at 8 in 145 Hancock hall.
Because many of the drugs and herbs used in pharmacy and medicine are shipped from the Orient, supplies have stopped completely. To prevent this shortage, the United States is experimenting with its natural and synthetic production.
NEW FIELDS STARTED
In California and Washington fields of belladonna, a deadly drug, have already been cultivated. Anthony Amatuzio, SC alumni, is now experimenting in this field .in this state.
Recent fieds of quilnine, which is shipped from India, have been discovered in Columbia, South America. These new fields will eliminate the growin gshortage of this widely used drug.
CEILINGS PLACED
Price ceilings have already been put on drugs and herbs and the sale of many has been frozen. The sale of agar, a Japanese product, has been restricted to use on bacteria slides only. The supply of opiates, which come from China and India, has been checked over, and although no new shipments can come in, there probably will be no shortage.
Joe E. Brown s Older Son Dies in Plane Crash
Comedian Travels by Plane to Scene of Desert Disaster
DETROIT. Oct. 8. — (U.P) — The ear-to-ear smile that for years has characterized the face of Joe E. Brown was gone tonight as the comedian planned to board a plane for Palm Springs, Calif., where his son, Capt. Done E. Brown, was killed in an army airplane crash today.
Brown could not be reached for a statement, but his manager, Richard Marshall, said he would board an American Airlines plane shortly after midnight. Tonight’s performance of “The Show-off,” in which Brown was starred for the past month, was called off. PLUMMETED TO EARTH
Manager David Nederland of the Shubert-Lafayette theater said he was unable to say when the comedian will resume his run here.

(There still was nothing in official soviet dispatches to confirm a Berlin radio announcement that the Germans are abandoning frontal assaults on Stalingrad. A broadcast of DNB, official German news agency, sad said that since the major German objectives at Stalingrad had been "achieved,” it is “no longer necessary that ,the rest of the city be captured by storm.” Instead, Berlin said, the rest of Stalingrad will be destroyed by heavy artillery.)
Although the communique reported only that the Russians were making a stonewall stand in Stalingrad, broken by ,the retreat in the outlying area, supplementary front dispatches indicated that the whole German plan for crushing Stalingrad was falling apart they reported steady progress in the Russian advance from the northwest and said that in one big battle outside the city, 45.000 Germans paced by elite Prussian shock troops were routed in disorders from a northwestern industrial district.
